The experience

The day starts at Hassan II Mosque, where the minaret rises 210 metres above the Atlantic, blending traditional Moroccan design with modern engineering. From there you move through Casablanca's colonial heart: Mohammed V Square with its art deco facades, the Habous Quarter's souks and craftsmanship, and a stop at the café from the film Casablanca itself. A stroll along the Corniche gives you the coastal views before the drive to Rabat.

In Rabat, Hassan Tower stands as the remains of an unfinished 12th-century mosque, paired with the Mohammed V Mausoleum, an architectural tribute to the king who led Morocco to independence. The Oudaya Kasbah follows: a fortress with white and blue alleys, an Andalusian garden and views across the Atlantic. The tour also includes an archaeological site where Roman ruins meet a medieval Islamic necropolis, surrounded by gardens where storks nest. Lunch happens at a modern waterfront spot overlooking the Bouregreg River, where you taste local dishes at your own pace.

You travel in an air-conditioned vehicle equipped with Wi-Fi, bottled water and wipes, driven by a multilingual guide who speaks English, Spanish, French and Arabic. Hotel or airport pickup is included, and the itinerary itself is yours to shape: your guide adapts the stops and timing based on what interests you most.
